The Scream World Tour was a concert tour by English born heavy metal musician Ozzy Osbourne in support of tenth studio album, Scream, which was released in June 2010. The tour officially kicked off in June 2010 with a tour of Europe, following two promotional dates in Hollywood in the United States earlier in the month. These shows were the first in which new guitarist Gus G. and drummer Tommy Clufetos were officially a part of the live band. The European leg began in Birmingham, England and wrapped up on the 9th of July in Turku, Finland. The main purpose of the leg was to promote Osbourne's newly released album, Scream. In August 2010, Osbourne and his touring band performed six dates for the annual Ozzfest as well as a pre-festival appearance at the Buffalo Chip festival in Sturgis, South Dakota. The event also hosted Mötley Crüe as a co-headliner marking the first time they have toured with Osbourne since 1984. The first date of the United States Ozzfest began in San Bernardino, California and eventually culminated in Boston, Massachusetts. After the culmination of the Ozzfest in the United States, Osbourne embarked on a second European leg beginning on August 28. The tour consisted of arena shows and festivals including the England and Israel iterations of the Ozzfest. Osbourne's appearance in Tel Aviv marks the first time he has performed in Israel. Osbourne was forced to cancel his show in Oberhausen, Germany, after he had pulled a back muscle. The leg ended in early October and Osbourne proceeded to Japan within two weeks to perform at the Loudpark Festival. Osbourne embarked on an arena leg of North America beginning October 30 with an appearance at the Voodoo Experience festival. Osbourne was supported by Halford, a heavy metal band fronted by Judas Priest vocalist Rob Halford. This leg of the tour ended on December 12. Osbourne embarked on a second leg of North America from January 16 – February 22 in 2011. He was supported by former Guns N' Roses guitarist Slash's solo band. This was the first time since 1984 that Ozzy had played in Puerto Rico. Ironically he said in an interview some days after the concert, that he will be back soon. He returned to Puerto Rico 27 years later. He had also been in Puerto Rico previously with Black Sabbath in 1972 but didn't get to play on that show.
